[Figure 2] It is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A shown in FIG. 1. [Figure 3] It is a perspective view when the display device is viewed from the rear side. [Figure 4] It is an exploded schematic view showing the ink layer provided on the transparent support plate in a disassembled state. [Figure 5] It is a schematic view showing an example of a method for forming the ink layer. [Figure 6] It is a perspective view showing the display state of the display device. [Mode for Carrying Out the Invention]

[0020] Hereinafter, a display device which is one aspect of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Figure 1 is a perspective view of the display device 1 from the front. Figure 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view along line AA shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 is a perspective view of the display device 1 from the rear.

[0021] As shown in Figure 1, the display device 1 is a display member on which the image of character C is drawn on a transparent support plate 10 made of transparent acrylic resin having a predetermined thickness. As shown in an enlarged view in Figure 2, the display device 1 has a display section 20 on one side (back side) of the transparent support plate 10, in which ink layers are laminated in the following order: a first image layer 21 at the front, a light transmission prevention layer 28 which is the layer behind the first image layer 21, and a second image layer 26 which is the layer behind the light transmission prevention layer 28.

[0022] As shown in Figure 1, the first pattern layer 21 constitutes the front image of character C. The first pattern layer 21 is formed as a color printed layer. The second pattern layer 26, which is at the very back when viewed from the transparent support plate 10, is formed as a color printed layer of the back image of character C, as shown in Figure 3. The back image of this second pattern layer 26 is formed with an image corresponding to the image of the first pattern layer 21, and the back of character C is faithfully depicted. Therefore, character C is represented as the back side of character C so that it can be recognized even when the display device 1 is viewed from the rear. This configuration allows the display device 1 to be displayed from both the front and the rear.

[0023] Furthermore, a clear layer 27 can be provided as the outermost layer, if necessary. This clear layer 27 can protect the ink layer of the display unit 20.

[0024] Figure 4 is an exploded perspective view showing the ink layer on the transparent support plate 10 in an disassembled state. The display section 20, located on the rear side of the transparent support plate 10, has a first pattern layer 21 and a second pattern layer 26, both formed as color ink layers as described above. However, the light transmission prevention layer 28 is composed of multiple layers. For example, the light transmission prevention layer 28 consists of a first white layer 22 at the front, a second white layer 23, a black layer 24, and a third white layer 25. Furthermore, this light transmission prevention layer 28 is shaped to match the outline of character C.

[0025] Furthermore, a black layer 24 is provided as the first layer to prevent light transmission from the light transmission prevention layer 28. In addition, three layers are provided as the second layer to prevent light transmission: a first white layer 22, a second white layer 23, and a third white layer 25. By forming the white layers with the black layer 24 in between, the color development of the pattern layers (first pattern layer 21 and second pattern layer 26), which are the color ink layers, can be improved. In particular, having two layers of white on the front side allows for the reproduction of more vibrant colors.

[0026] Furthermore, the black layer 24 has a black density of less than 100%. This allows for changes in the depth of color in the color image by altering the black density. For example, a higher black density can provide an image with increased depth. This does not mean that a higher black density is always better; the density can be adjusted according to the characteristics of character C and the scene in which it is depicted. For example, in the case of a robot character, it may be preferable to provide an image with a sense of weight and depth by increasing the black density, while in the case of a girl character, it may be preferable to provide a bright image with a lower black density.

[0027] Here, we will explain an example of how to adjust the black density of the black layer 24. Figure 5 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a method for forming an ink layer. In the method for forming the ink layer shown in Figure 5, a color display pattern is formed on one side of the transparent support plate 10. In the case shown in Figure 5, this is done using an ink-jet type color printer 60 on the transparent support plate 10. In this case, nozzles (61-64) for ink jetting are provided on one end of the print head 60a of the color printer 60. For example, nozzles consisting of four colors are provided: a magenta (M) nozzle 61, a cyan (C) nozzle 62, a yellow (Y) nozzle 63, and a black (BK) nozzle 64.

[0028] In the color printing press 60 configured as described above, the print head 60a, equipped with nozzles, moves (scans) relative to the transparent support plate 10 facing the spray nozzles, and prints by spraying ink while moving the transparent support plate 10 relative to the print head 60a. When printing the black layer 24, the nozzles for black 64 and, for example, the nozzle for yellow 63 are used. This allows the black density to be adjusted. For example, 100% density is achieved when only black ink is used. Alternatively, the black density can be reduced by increasing the amount of yellow ink relative to the amount of black ink.

[0029] Figure 6 is a perspective view showing the display state of display device 1. The transparent support plate 10 in the display device 1 is designed to be displayed in combination with the base member 40. For example, the transparent support plate 10 has a fitting projection 11 at one end, which fits into a fitting recess 41 of the base member 40. This allows the display device 1 to be stably placed on the mounting surface 50. The base member 40 can be, for example, rectangular as shown in the figure, and can be made of the same transparent acrylic resin as the transparent support plate 10.

[0030] As described above, in this embodiment of the display device 1, the display section 20 is laminated on one side of the transparent support plate 10 in the order of a first pattern layer 21, a light transmission prevention layer 28, and a second pattern layer 26, so that the image represented by the first pattern layer 21 and the image represented by the second pattern layer 26 can be displayed separately without interfering with each other.

[0031] In this embodiment, the display device 1 is equipped with a black layer 24 (first layer) of black material, which enables effective light transmission prevention. Furthermore, by providing white material in addition to black, light transmission prevention can be made even more reliable.

[0032] In the display device 1 of this embodiment, the light transmission prevention layer 28 has multiple layers, which makes light transmission prevention more reliable.

[0033] In the display device 1 of this embodiment, the light transmission prevention layer 28 is provided with a second white layer (first white layer 22, second white layer 23, and third white layer 25), which makes light transmission more reliable and improves the color development of the pattern layer (first pattern layer 21 or second pattern layer 26) adjacent to the second layer.

[0034] In this embodiment of the display device 1, the light transmission prevention layer 28 has a black layer 24 between two white layers, resulting in excellent light transmission prevention functionality. Furthermore, since the first pattern layer 21 and the second pattern layer 26 adjacent to the white layers are formed as color printing layers, their color development is enhanced, providing a beautiful color pattern.

[0035] Furthermore, in the display device 1 of this embodiment, the white layer is composed of multiple layers, which significantly improves the color development of the pattern layer adjacent to the multiple layers.

[0036] In the display device 1 of this embodiment, the color tone of the image, such as the depth of the pattern, can be adjusted by adjusting the black density of the black layer 24 to less than 100%.

[0037] In the display device 1 of this embodiment, the black layer 24 is composed of a mixture of black ink and non-black ink, allowing the black density to be freely adjusted. Furthermore, when forming the ink layer using an ink-jet type device, the black density can be adjusted by jetting non-black ink onto the black ink during the formation of the ink layer.

[0038] In the display device 1 of this embodiment, the first pattern layer 21 constitutes the front image of character C, and the second pattern layer 26 constitutes the back image of character C, thereby enabling a three-dimensional representation of the image on the display unit 20.

[0039] In the display device 1 of this embodiment, the image of character C is formed on one side of the transparent acrylic resin, thereby enhancing the glossiness of the front side of character C and creating a glossy appearance on the display surface that resembles highly transparent glass.

[0040] Although one aspect of the present invention has been described above, the present invention can be modified as appropriate within the scope of its technical concept. For example, in the above embodiment, the white layer on the front side has a two-layer structure, but the invention is not limited to this configuration, and the white layer on the rear side may also have a two-layer structure, or furthermore, both the front and rear may have a single white layer.

[0041] Furthermore, although yellow ink was used as the ink for adjusting the black density in the above embodiment, the invention is not limited to this, and other non-black inks may also be used. [Explanation of Symbols]
